Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Separating 1300 years of time from hundreds of meters of rock beds, Waltz and Atlas continue their conversation over the bear doll.

"... in the meantime, I'll just send you the item box"

"Ah. That's half the purpose."

"If you're on the other half... once accomplished, is that good enough?

'In terms of seeing if what you've done in the past will be reflected in the future, can you say that you're accomplishing it?

"That would be nice (confirming more than that would be a bit too adventurous......)"

The words of Waltz, who said so and sighed, contained various meanings. The biggest of these would be relief at the fact that the future and the past are connected. If the past where the waltzes are and the future where the Atlas are were not connected, it is impossible to go back to the original era. If I did poorly, I could say that it would be far harder than looking for a way back to the modern world where Waltz was.

"Well, quickly, I'm going to fill in the item box... because I don't know what happens when there's a difference in observation over there, so what about burying it inside a wall that I can't observe with a puff of eyes? If you just decide where to bury it first, nothing's gonna be a problem in the wall, right?

'Oh, right. Problem is depth. "

"That's right...... If it's too deep, it's hard to dig it up, and if it's too shallow, it won't arrive... By the way, do you know the depth of the basement where you are right now?

"Maybe 300 meters?

"That's appropriate...... Well, that's good. Well, in the meantime, I'm gonna dig 300m, so could you check to see if it's good at that depth? If it doesn't work, I'll dig another hole. But we're not gonna fill out the item box yet, are we?

'Aye. Position... right... from the first hole, 250 steps to the west, please'

"Whoa.... because? Lucia."

"... 250 steps based on who?

"It's the same as earlier, isn't it good by Lucia standards? Atlas and Lucia, I don't think they'll change their physique very much..."

"Oh? Okay." Ta-da.

"... you look happy?

"Hmm, isn't it my fault?

And we both walk west about 250 steps from the first position, sisters drilling holes there. Looks like Lucia used dirt magic to scrape the ground, and then Waltz measured the depth -- and repeated it several times -- just adjusted the depth of the hole to 300m.

Later, Waltz tells Atlas.

"I dug it, didn't I?

Then I heard it, King Atlas and King Endelusia, in the world of the future, begin to break down the walls of the positions discussed beforehand...

After a while, the words back from Atlas seemed pretty unexpected to the waltzes in the past.

"Hey, sister..."

"Hmm? What? Didn't you find the hole? Gotta be a little deeper --"

'No... I found it to find it... did you fill the item box with it too?

""... Huh?

"That reaction, it feels like you haven't buried it yet..."

"What is it...... did you find the item box too?

'Oh, you're right. The food is... safe. It won't rot for 1300 years or something. It's a hell of a magic prop after all... What is this? Empty container? Why is this...'

"Uh, sure, that's the item box we're going to fill... Well, there was a lot about empty containers. Never mind? But... what do you mean? I haven't buried it over here yet..."

With that said, Waltz rolls the ring shaped demon prop "item box" that was on his hand. She was confused, but the cause seemed obvious at that point.

Atlas opens his mouth about it.

'I mean, we're going to bury it here, right?

"I guess so, but the results are confirmed first and the cause later... isn't that creepy? You're ignoring karma..."

"If you look at it on the timeline, I think it's done. Well, that's the thing. And then there's nothing we can do over here, so I'll take care of it? Sister."

"Yep... If we don't bury it here, maybe the future will change..."

That's what I said. Waltz slowly drops the ring he was holding to the bottom of the hole in the ground, using a gravity control system.

In doing so, she thinks like this.

"(In the end, if we don't get in line with the future and the present, we don't know what's going to happen, do we... But there's got to be an inconsistency with the future, even if it's invisible, like the flow of molecules in the air, the movement of microbes attached to the back of the shoe... but still, the fact that the future hasn't changed is probably proof that even if we did something here, it doesn't make sense?

Even if we don't fill the item box here, after a near future, some circumstance, we'll end up filling it in the same place...... With that in mind, Waltz stares at the hole that dropped the item box. But she doesn't have the guts to do this with the item box that falls into the hole... It was just a quiet drop off of the item box falling to the bottom of the ground.
